I would give 10 stars if i can , i loved it there and the manager and her team is awesome . I just moved out because i thought i was moving out of state and they ended leasing the apartment out but the manager gave me and extra month and never rushed me i lived here 5yrs before then left for 2 and came back . No complaints at all they so nice and understanding its very safe. I wouldve stayed there forever if i could’ve, they tried to put me in another apartment but it was too small . But i will surely miss it back there. Vista Arbor has a dream team for sure.
